Denmark will allocate $375 million for Ukraine’s recovery under the Ukraine Transition Program in 2025–2028, according to the Telegram channel of Ukraine’s Ministry for Communities and Territories Development.
"Ukraine and Denmark have launched a new Ukraine Transition Program for 2025–2028 with a budget of 2.8 billion Danish kroner ($375 million)," the statement reads.
The new program is aimed at restoring critical infrastructure, providing humanitarian aid, supporting veterans and internally displaced persons, developing business, advancing the green transition in energy and transport, as well as continuing reforms.
"We already have positive experience cooperating with Denmark in Mykolaiv. Today this format is expanding to the national level. I am confident that in the next three years millions of Ukrainians will see tangible results," said Deputy Prime Minister for Ukraine’s Recovery and Minister for Communities and Territories Development Oleksiy Kuleba.
According to him, about 60% of the total budget will be directed to Mykolaiv and Mykolaiv region. In March 2023, a partnership memorandum was signed between Denmark and the Mykolaiv region.
Since then, the Danish side has helped restore the water supply system, supported modernization of heating and energy, and cooperated with local communities and authorities.
The remaining 40% of funds will go to other regions of Ukraine affected by the war, including the restoration of hospitals and schools, modernization of energy and water supply networks, and support for internally displaced persons across the country.
Denmark's assistance to Ukraine
From the first weeks of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Denmark has provided comprehensive support to Ukraine. In May, the Danish government announced a new military aid package to Ukraine totaling over 4 billion Danish kroner (€536 million).
In April, Denmark also announced a new defense package for Ukraine worth 6.7 billion Danish kroner (around $995 million). The funds will be distributed over 2025–2027 and include air defense systems, artillery, and financial support for the Ukrainian Air Force.
In March, the Danish Ministry of Defense announced plans to invest about €40 million in a special innovation fund aimed at strengthening the technological capabilities of the Ukrainian military in modern warfare.
